About Us

Prepare Your Heart for a Great Christmas was created by Maria Rodgers O’Rourke, a working mom who has been there, done that. Maria loves the holiday season, but not the stress that comes with it. This book is perfect for every woman who wants to prepare for December 25th in the true Christmas spirit, and not only survive the holidays but enjoy them—with her mind, heart and soul intact!

Prepare Your Heart for a Great Christmas isn’t for those who aspire to be Martha Stewart or Mother Teresa, but for all women who fall somewhere in between!
